Report a Pest

Have You Seen a New or Unusual Plant or Pest in Your Area? If so, you can play an important role in protecting California agriculture and your environment by reporting the sighting of a plant or pest that you suspect may be a new invasive species in your area. The CA Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) has released a mobile application for California citizens. The app provides the ability to photograph and report suspected harmful pests to state and local agricultural officials. Using camera and GPS technology, the app provides CDFA invasive species specialists with valuable sighting information. Lastly, the mobile app is connected to our Report a Pest database where an invasive species specialist can identify and return a contact back to the citizen.
